Question
Is it permissible to juice pomegranates?
Answer
Fruits and vegetables that are typically juiced, such as pomegranates and the like, raise a question regarding the permissibility of juicing them [since it can be argued that because this is the usual practice, it is not considered extracting juice, and even though the reason mentioned in the previous section, that it is considered crushing the fruit, does not apply here], and there is room to be lenient.
